"Oh blessed perseverance of the donkey that turns the water-wheel! Always the same pace. Always the same circles. One day after another: veryday the same.
Without that, there would be no ripeness in the fruit, nor blossom in the orchard, nor scent of flowers in the garden.
Carry this thought to your interior life." St Josemaria Escriva

Another sad day in Canada

Henry Morgentaler has been awarded the Order of Canada.  A man whose life was devoted to killing innocent babies is now given the highest award this country has to offer.  This is one of the lowest days in Canadian history.  How can he get this award after being responsible for the deaths of the most innocent citizens of this country. 

He says he is proud of his work, he is proud of giving women safe abortions.  Safe for who?  He doesn't even acknowledge the kids he rips apart, burns with chemicals and kills in a most inhuman ways.  

Archbishop Collins has issued a statement about the matter, full text can be found here (note: pdf file)

Canada's highest honour has been debased. Henry Morgentaler has been awarded the Order of Canada. We are all diminished.

A community's worth is measured by the way it treats the most vulnerable, and no one is more vulnerable than in the first nine months of life's journey. No person may presume to judge the soul of Henry Morgentaler, but it cannot be denied that the effect of his life's work has been a deadly assault upon the most helpless amongst us.

Canada glories in the names of Banting and Best, and the other medical heroes who selflessly brought healing where there was disease and suffering. Now it honours with the Order of Canada a medical man who has brought not healing, but the destruction of the defenseless and immeasurable grief. This award must not stand.

What Abortion Is

I've been asked by members of Priests for Life to post about the new videos that Fr. Pavone posted on YouTube.  The videos are graphic and may be disturbing to some people but I think that is the point. 

A lot of people say they are pro choice without knowing what that simple statement actually means.  Fr. Pavone does a wonderful job showing exactly what abortion is.

Obama likes babies dead

In 1973 alone white doctors aborted roughly 400,000 African-American fetuses. Those people would be 35-years-old this year, and would have been eligible to run for the presidency. But they didn’t make the cut, so to speak. I did. I’m a survivor and that’s the kind of person we need in the White House advocating the pro-choice cause.

Obama speaking to NARAL Pro-Choice America

I had to read this several times to take in the full idiocy of this statement. How anyone can support this guy is beyond me.

So much for freedom of speech in Canadian universities

Similar thing has happened in Ryerson University when I was a student there.

Obama insanity

We have lost the understanding that in a democracy, we have a mutual obligation to one another — that we cannot measure the greatness of our society by the strongest and richest of us, but we have to measure our greatness by the least of these. That we have to compromise and sacrifice for one another in order to get things done. That is why I am here, because Barack Obama is the only person in this who understands that. That before we can work on the problems, we have to fix our souls. Our souls are broken in this nation.

Michelle Obama

There is something off about Obama. He wants to measure the greatness of the society by the least of its members. The most innocent and defenceless I would guess, yet at the same time he wants to allow those stronger members of society to kill them. Something is not adding up. He is supposed to understand that we have to sacrifice ourselves for one another to get things done, yet, except for when it comes to sacrificing nine months of "inconvenience" to save a child. Interesting.

Inspirational mambo jumbo to cover his true self.
